Can You Sell Your iPhone for Parts if it is Locked?

Many iPhone users think about putting their iPhone 7 parts for sale when it becomes old. The same is true for all models. But, a question is asked frequently- can a locked iPhone be sold for its part?

 

Well, the answer is yes, and we will find out how in this blog, so let's begin.

 

Can someone sell their locked iPhone?

 

Maybe you own an iPhone that is locked. If so, you might wonder whether you can still sell it for parts to the iPhone 11 parts supplier. First of all, let's ensure you understand what we mean by saying "locked."

 

A locked iPhone is one whose Activation Lock feature on the phone has been enabled. This feature was created by Apple, which makes it difficult for thieves to manipulate stolen iPhones. When this feature is activated, you'll have to use your password and Apple ID to wipe the memory and restore it to the factory settings. Maybe you possess an iPhone that you are trying to sell for parts as you tried fixing it with iPhone xs Max screen replacement or similar schemes but found yourself empty-handed. And the icing on the cake is that the phone is locked.

 

As this scenario appears, only criminals would be trying to sell a locked iPhone, but that's not the case. You might be the master of the iPhone, but you've been locked out as you've forgotten your Apple ID or password.

 

Fortunately, nothing can stop you from selling a locked iPhone if you find a buyer. Most buyback vendors require the phone to be unlocked before they purchase it, so it's a dead end. You can still find a private buyer who might be interested in taking the phone and breaking it down for parts.
